[Mesh] New Meetup Terms of Service

[jcatkeson]

A lot of it just looks like a firewall in case you yourself get in some kind of outside trouble Meetup won't get dragged into it.
The only iffy part is the promise to seek arbitration instead of sueing them, but when was the last time Meetup killed somebody?
BTW parsing this TOS would be easier if they just ran a diff against the previous contract.

      Meetup has a new ToS that I'm not sure I should agree to.  What jumps
out is that "I agree to binding arbitration (chosen by Meetup) for any
dispute arising between me and Meetup".  Any thoughts on whether it is
safe to continue using Meetup?

    Mainly, I'm looking for limits on *my* liability.  If all that is at
stake is Meetup terminating my account, I'm good with it.  But the
agreement is all about limiting Meetup's liability, not mine.
